"Wow!" That was Chris Matthews' immediate reaction to Barack Obama's response to a question from a Fox News reporter about why his pick for Commerce Secretary, Bill Richardson, shaved his beard off. After playing a clip from Obama's press conference introducing Richardson on Monday night's "Hardball," Matthews awed at the "intellectual" way Obama analyzed Richardson's personal grooming habits.

The media has become beyond a joke-even FOX.
Asking questions at a president elect’s press conference about dogs, ties, Christmas shopping and now this bit of bizarro gayness.
What’s worse than the question is Obama even answering it and then going into great detail about another man’s facial hair.
The only thing creepier than Obama’s answer would be for him to actually shave Richardson.
Maybe that will happen next press conference.
I just hope he choses his face.

I’m watching the HBO mini series, John Adams. The United States our Founding Fathers created no longer exists in my opinion.

20th century power hungry politicians elected over and over and over again have bankrupted our republic to reward their party over country, their personal power over the people they represent. Without conpunction, these creatures have sent our great expierment sprialing toward a black abyss of socialism I fear we may never fully escape from.

The Anti Federalists and States Rights advocates were correct. And Jefferson’s words about patriots and tyrants prophetic.
